Finally!!
Finally I own a home. I signed this morning and delivered my first car load of stuff immediately following. I'm so excited. No more raining in my apartment!

Thank you to everyone who listened to me whine on the trail. You all have been great. See you after I move!

Congrats, Mariposa!

Say, did you know you had a really good Mexican restaurant in Longmont, CO as well? ;)

Enjoy your new home. :)

I didn't. But I love Mexican! Was that past tense? Or do I see a road trip in the future? I could swing by for a taco on my way to the trail! LOL.

No, actually, it's still there and quite good. I went before Christmas. :)

Call me when you get in town! We can hit Mariposa for an after hike meal. ;)

Homeowner Initiation
I love my new house despite the homeowner initiation I got....

I have lots of nice new shiny plumbing now! :)

And a nice new shiny credit card bill to go with it. It might be a long time before I make it to the woods. :(

But it's worth it. No more leaking moldy apartment. Say amen.

It's always difficult at first. Hang in there and don't stay away from the trail too long!

It won't be too long! You're not lucky enough to have peace and quiet in the woods! LOL!

Homeowner initiation, I like that.

We had some of that. It came with a $14,000 bill. I actually told the first contractor to get out of my house because I thought he was trying to swindle us.

Ain't life grand?
